Nord Stream 2 is supporting a program of telemetry studies of the Baltic ringed seal in the Gulf of Finland. The studies use GPS tags deployed on seals to collect information on their behaviour and movement patterns. Expanding scientific knowledge is vital for developing an effective strategy to preserve the population of this protected species. This documentary film explains the methodology and fieldwork conducted by an expert group for this project, which began in the summer of 2017.
